How do you draw a angled leg

[Gary Puckett]

I am trying to draw a ladder I made last year. Below is a drawing of the ladder, my question is how do you angle the legs with any accurrisie?

In other words how do you control the amount of degrees you move off of 90?

Gary,
I would start by creating a cabinet that is the same size as the ladder. Use stretchers (with full dados) to create and position the rungs. Then take your end panels into the PE and set your angle snaps to whatever angle you need. Draw your stinger using the dados on the endpanel as guides. Use the create part using closed contour feature to cut out the perimeter of the stringers.

Todd,

Would that be easyer than building it piece by piece with display boards?

Gary,
FYI. Display boards will not nest at the control. You will want to use Display Panels.

And yes I think It would be easier to use cabinets, but that would be a user preference. I like using cabinets, because I can resize (to a certain point) and apply contraints.
